    I do not recommend anyone to play this version until Klei decides to fix it. Not only it is an unstable 30~40 FPS experience (while the original game runs in both docked and portable at 60 fps most of the time), but it is also not up-to-date in terms of content and there is no crossplay or even cross-progress between consoles (which could totally be possible, but they decided to not focusI do not recommend anyone to play this version until Klei decides to fix it.

Well, that means I am not going to be focused on this game until it works at least fine, and so should you.… Expand

    Don't Starve Together ready for 50%.
    1. It very laggy and works in 30 fps, not so smoothly like Don't Starve Switch Edition.
    2. It don't have newest updates. This version late in 4 months compare with PC(Steam). 3. Awful input lag which very annoying and can ruined game for you. P.s. DST for switch its very good but we will should wait patches. If developers fix game I delete my    Don't Starve Together ready for 50%.

    I want to like this game, I love the art and the content seems like something I want to explore. But I've never found a way to actually enjoy it. It feels way too punishing for the clankiness involved.

    This is the worst console port I've ever played. Very long load times, stuttery frame rate, UI too small to see in couch co-op, input lag, somehow there is network lag and disconnects in offline play (!?), frequent crashes, unintuitive controls, and it doesn't even have content parity with other platforms. To top it all off it's not even available in South America eshops so I couldn't playThis is the worst console port I've ever played.

    An absolute disaster of a port. Playing the game couch co-op offline it takes forever to load. But worst of all the game doesn't save progress and crashed on disconnect and deletes all saved data for all games. I've reported the bug and put up a forum post with no resolve. It's absolute trash and I've never regretted buying a game more.

    The game is fun. I've owned don't starve for years but didn't play it, so together is actually my first time playing it. The local multiplayer is pretty decent, though my girlfriend and I are still figuring everything out, so we haven't survived very long yet.

    The frame rate is okay. The switch version is slightly behind the PC version by a few months. If you do not own this on any other system this is a solid choice but I would only recommend this to existing fans because of the split-screen functionality.

    However, there is a chance that important information will be cut off by your TV screen and most importantly, the game often crashes,    The frame rate is okay.

    Very good game, but on COMBAT is my main issue. For one the enemies' attack hit boxes seem 2.5x bigger than they are on pc, I have died to this multiple times, and I know i'm not being angry because BEES which are only able to hurt you if you basically touching them on pc can hit me AN ITEM away, which seems small, but when fighting a group it's a problem.

And with combat being so important in this game it is super frustrating. For two the auto aim is super annoying. On pc you use the mouse to attack what enemy you want, but on switch sometimes it targets a random spider or bee in the back, which always bets me killed, there is NO OFF TOGGLE FOR THIS. With combat being so important in this game I expect better. Don't play this until either one of these bugs is fixed.… Expand

    I've always dreamed of taking Don't Starve Together on a trip, and when DST was announced on Switch, I was very happy. And I decided to share my opinion about this port on the Nintendo switch. I found only 2 cons. 1. The game runs at 30 fps. 2. The Switch does not have the latest updates that are on the PC (Steam version), they will be late for about 3 months.
